''The whales used to sing the song-lines under the water,'' Marty said. Now, as we know, many whales and dolphins are being killed by sonar testing. ''Their whole navigation system is built on sound and so they are very sensitive to sound vibrations,'' she explained. So these experiments are killing off the sentient beings in the ocean. ''I don't know if it's on purpose,'' she said. ''Whales, porpoises, and elephants are more intelligent than most politicians.''

I hail You and praise You,Glorious Goddess,At the end of this day which You granted me.May my actions within its hours be judged to be justified,And my words within its hours found to be true.Drain from me all intent and action;I offer to You all energy I have locked in unworthy action or reaction.May tomorrow by Your grace find me wiserand my joy in the universe still greater;I ask Your welcome now in the Temple;Accept me this night for rest, for study, and for worship;Grant me dreams of meaning and the memory to recall them.Hail to You, Goddess of the starry pathways;Hail to You, Goddess of the Deep Black,Hail to You, Goddess of the Shining Sun at Midnight,May I partake of Your glory forever.
